Hello: I have six separate mpeg video files and their accompanying audio files that I want to have playable in a "Play All" track. I thought that dragging each one in, one after the other like assembling clips in final cut would do the trick, but when I viewed the resulting dvd, the player kicked it back to the main menu after showing only the first movie, skipping the other five altogether. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

wait, you're dropping all the clips into one track? That should work.
And Nick, great link.
Hi, Nick: Thanks for the info, but I'm not getting it. I've never done anything with scripts before...kind of new at dvd studio pro. Is that the only way to make a "play all" function properly?
Yes; I'm taking six movie files and their accompanying audio files and dropping them, one after the other, into one track. When I watch thru the simulator (or on a test dvd) and hit "play all," it only plays the first movie, then jumps back to the main menu. I just now tried adding chapter markers between the movies, but it still jumps back to main menu after the first movie.
Ok, Nick and Michael: I apologize. I just discovered my problem, and it was a lame-brained error on my part. I had my target on the "Play All" button on the main menu set on the wrong track (instead of on the track that contained all of the clips, it was set on the track with the first clip only.) Once I fixed that, my "all clips in one track" approach worked. Thanks for your time, and sorry!
